Hello Eric,

strptime("201206",format="%Y%m") gives NA (I don't know why but I'm a
newbie).

The only solution I found is to add "01" as a day to have a complete date
(Year Month Day):
x$Period<-as.Date(paste(x$Period,"01",sep=""),format="%Y%m%d")

Then you get a Date format you can use to plot graph.

I think you will get better solutions from advanced users.
Have a good day,
Ptit Bleu.
